OCTOBER 2021 PE RESULTS RELEASED
The results from the October 2021 PE exam administration were released to your NCEES portal yesterday. Please allow the Board 5-7 business days for processing. If you were approved for the exam only by submitting the Professional Engineer Examination application, please review the requirements of the Professional Engineer by Examination application and submit if all requirements are met for licensure.
ACCESS TO THE ONLINE RENEWAL PORTAL
The Kansas State Board of Technical Professions would like to remind everyone that only the licensee should be accessing his or her renewal portal. Please note that allowing others to access the portal on your behalf may result in discipline to your license. Please be advised the Principal in Responsible Charge should be the only employee accessing the businesses' renewal portal.

K.A.R. 66-14-1 now requires that 24 of the required 30 CEUS be related to health, safety, property and welfare (HSPW). Licensees may not obtain more than 10 CEUS in any 24-hour period. Five self-study CEUS are allowed with proof of course completion. Kansas rules and regulations must be met to satisfy the continuing education requirement.
